.@HawleyMO has filed an ethics complaint against Dems over their ethics complaint about his enabling of lies that incited the riot, @elwasson reports: https://t.co/mh6FN71reB Pampered elitists like Hawley are incapable of admitting error. But his defense has become a sad joke: https://t.co/hJ52gmT1dJ

A GOP House staffer, Jason Schmid, just resigned in a blistering letter attacking his own party. He said what many Republicans will not: Those telling Trump's lies are enemies of democracy, and those lies are the reason for the siege of the Capitol: https://t.co/uunuZViyt2 https://t.co/KHqPFV47Qe

I just talked to @ChrisMurphyCT about his big floor speech ripping Republicans. “If this becomes normalized," he tells me, "they will steal an election two years from now or four years from now.” The GOP has "enemies of democracy inside its top ranks." https://t.co/FlhH0F1SXH

Trump is raging at Republicans because they aren't doing *enough* to sustain the illusion that the election is being stolen from him, CNN reports. Which highlights a big problem for Republicans: Admitting Trump lost cannot be deferred forever. New piece: https://t.co/MEZmuTIm4F

Trump has now publicly admitted that his attorney general intervened in the case of his own longtime adviser -- who obstructed an investigation into an attack on our political system -- for the express purpose of undermining DOJ's own investigative conclusions about himself. https://t.co/T3Q9tUMCdt

Folks are underplaying what a vote against new witnesses really means. It's a vote to NEVER hear from those with the most direct knowledge of Trump's misconduct. GOP Senators who vote for that are actually voting to carry *Trump's* coverup to completion: https://t.co/mkLbJ72s1J

Want clear language? Trump used hundreds of millions of dollars in appropriated taxpayer money to extort a vulnerable ally under Russian attack into helping him falsify Russian sabotage of the last election on his behalf and corrupt the next one to his benefit as well. https://t.co/uAVQEZMeWl

Important: Ambassador Sondland told Sen Ron Johnson that military aid was directly linked to Trump's demand that Ukraine help rig election, WSJ reports: https://t.co/Z9LUzHmAD8 Key here is that Bill Taylor brought up this link w/Sondland *twice,* and *both* times, he dodged: https://t.co/flA48wl7sS
